Oliva Master Blends 3 Robusto

The Oliva Master Blends series was created as the brands first foray into super premium cigars. Since the Master Blends release, they’ve created additional premium offerings, but it was this blend that saw their first release that crossed the $10 barrier. It was a bold release for the company at the time and laid the foundation for their future blends. While the Serie V Melanio gets the lion’s share of attention these days, the Master Blend is definitely worth revisiting. Using a blend of the finest quality Nicaraguan filler and binder tobaccos along with a USA Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, this blend is simply delicious. It offers a pleasing palate of tasting notes that include flavors of cocoa, earth, and cream along with hints of pepper, brown sugar, and cedar. While the Oliva Master Blends series may have been around for a while, this exceptional blend is still a winner in our books.

TThe Oliva portfolio of premium cigars is wide ranging and covers the bases of flavor profile and price points. No matter which of their products you choose, you are guaranteed a great tasting cigar at a fair price point. While some of their other marks get the lion’s share or attention, it’s a great idea to look back and enjoy one of their first premium blends. Even after all these years, the Oliva Master Blend 3 is still a champ. Though it’s been on the market for close to 15 years, it keeps racking up the accolades. It scored as high as 92 in Cigar Aficionado. It’s a testament to the care and attention to detail that the Oliva family puts into products that bear their name.
